Having owned all three the DA12-24 wins for me although it doesn't manage to quite replicate the very pleasant colour/contrast that Pentax lenses produce.

Maybe I had a bad copy but I found the distortion/lack of sharpness very disappointing at the edges on my DA15mm, so much so I sold it and bought the DA12-24 which I'm more than happy with

Simon, have just looked at your landscape photography website..absolutely first class...some really stunning imagery. Maybe asking professionals like yourself
how you have found the existing sensor technology is the way forward. It was the bit about regularly printing images up to 36x24 inches...can't be many people who need to go bigger than that.

With no disrespect to Pentax (owners), does anyone know how professional Nikon owners have reacted to the same question, given that as has been stated already the difference they are looking at is about £300. Do they view the dearer model as necessary or just desirable or are there a lot who manage quite well with just the standard model? Sheer weight of numbers with Nikon vis a vis Pentax might give a more accurate answer through greater sample size.
Thanks for the compliment although I don't class myself as professional, photography is still a part-time pursuit for me at the moment.

I think you make a valid point about Nikon owners though, might be worth anyone who is really concerned about the difference between AA & non AA cmeras having a browse over there, probably more user experience "data" available
